Pinocchio Puppet *LOCAL*

Description

To apply to adopt this dog now, complete our adoption application   HERE To see our upcoming events where you can meet some of our dogs, please see   HERE Age: 6 months (as of 6/27/26) Weight: 17 lbs (as of 7/6/26) Location: RI This dog has been spayed/neutered, is up to date on shots, on heartworm preventative and is microchipped. Meet Pinnochio, a delightful puppy with a gentle heart and the sweetest little wagging tail! We think Pinocchio may be a Miniature Pinscher (Min Pin) mix. Pinnochio is a playful and goofy little guy who loves toys and enjoys romping around once he feels comfortable. He has enjoyed the company of other dogs in his foster home and would love a friendly canine sibling.  He has also done well with the resident cat in his foster home! He is timid and unsure when meeting new people or exploring unfamiliar places.  He is looking for a patient home who is willing to go at his pace. He is a homebody at heart and would prefer an adopter who is looking for a great at home companion rather than a dog to take everywhere with them. In the home, he is playful, friendly and has typical puppy energy.  Due to his shy and nervous nature he is not a candidate for a home with small kids.  Pinnochio is working on house training, crate training and will need to learn to walk on a leash. We strongly recommend that all our dogs attend obedience classes because you get to learn new skills together, and it offers an opportunity for confidence building and socialization for the dog. Why adopt Pinnochio? Because every day with him is bound to be filled with laughter, love, and lots of playful antics! An adoption donation is required for each adoption; please see   HERE   for more information about this.

We get to know each of our dogs as an individual and do our best to describe and place them based on personality not breed label. Some dogs may not yet be in New England, nor ready for immediate adoption. There may be additional vetting, quarantine, waiting periods and/or fees depending upon your state of residence. If you have questions or concerns on any of this, you can discuss this with your Adoption Counselor.
